The star of ABC's spy-action thriller drama series Alias - Jennifer Garner, got back in L.A., after the actress spent her summer shooting the film "Miracles from Heaven" in Atlanta.

Jennifer Garner couldn't be happier about spending some quality time with her kids, as the American actress and film producer treated her children to a fun-filled family weekend.

Jennifer Garner took her 6 year old daughter Seraphina on Saturday at Color Me Mine in Santa Monica for a fun day of painting ceramic pots.  

On Sunday, Garner went on her early morning jog, and afterwards went to church with her three children, 9 year old Violet, Seraphina and the 3 year old Samuel.

A source observed that, "The kids seemed excited about church. They ran into several school friends," and added that, "Jen also had a very warm welcome at the church. She kept smiling and looked happy."

The family then went on to their local farmers' market as it is their favorite weekend spot. And some eyewitness said that Jennifer Garner held her children's hands as they strolled the streets, picking out fruits and vegetables from the various stands.

The eyewitness said that Garner looked happy to see familiar faces at the market, and Jennifer had a number of welcome-back-to L.A. hugs.

When the 43 year old Jennifer Garner arrived in Los Angeles, the actress has been staying at the family home, while her estranged husband Ben Affleck rented a place just a few blocks down.

 Christine Ouzounian the alleged nanny that got linked to Ben Affleck, causing damage to the actor's marriage of 10 years, is trying to move her way into a reality TV show by using her what she called her newfound "infamy".

A source stated, "The word in LA is that Christine is looking for an agent and wants a TV deal, on something like 'The Bachelorette' or 'Dancing With the Stars,'" "She knows she most likely can't go back to nannying -- who in LA would hire her now to take care of their kids? So she's going to use the spotlight to build a showbiz career."
